it will depend on the ground condition if he comes in it will br to replace a tall, either wakelin or fraser?

i agree great to see new talents emerge, but why didnt the selection commitee give them a go sooner

I am so pleased to see the Pies have bitten the bullet and gone for new blood. Sadly it took an awful event for change to happen! It is time for renewal, the johnson/shaw/Didak area is over and the management that allowed this Drinking culture to survive needs to be removed. I truly...

absolute rubbish. Dont blame these guys for a culture problem. Shaw has stuffed up once give him a break. Didak, needs help!

Is it time for a shake up. Each day it has become more obvious. Yes we were fifth by now were are eight. We will now be forced to give some kids a go. Lets try the kids we recruited. I am very sorry for didak and shaw, they are not the real problem. The problem is the system/management at...

First we have to consider when we are likely to be competitve for a flag. Are we likely in 2009 or 2010, dont think so. I suggest we look at 2011 as the beginning of our new Magpie era. We have a good young core and by then they will be 75 plus games. So we need to get a few more young...

bringing back lonie, that is not the answer for collingwood, try out more of the young kids, lets find out what we have in the vfl, we may be surprised.

all right who now thinks it is time for shake up:D

Thank you fellow Pies for your responses to my initial thread. Its Wednesday and we now look forward to the Essendon game. I feel very confident, but it is worth noting the disappointment today from Tarquin about the teams weekly concentration. I think we are so close but as is evident...

great to know there is so many true believers, I love the jumper and love the pies, I am just frustrated with losing games we should win. Yes I go to every home game and this year we have had some great wins but the consistency is not there. Maybe I should leave eddie and the jumper out of it...

Well sounds like I am on my own. Is there anyone out there worried about lossing to Carlton twice next year. Sorry 1 flag in 49 years. Dont we deserve better!!!!

Most interesting reaction. Yes we are rich and powerful, yes I think Eddie is terrific at running a business and a very passionate leader. By what I really want is a priemership soon. It worries me that Carlton and Nth Melb with lesser facilties etc,have beaten us twice in 1 Year.

Dear collingwood friends, are you tired of Eddie complaining about the jumper, I am. What I really want from Eddie is answers about our losses? Which victorian club has the best training facilities? Collingwood Which Victorian club spends the most on coaches? Collingwood Which Victorian...

I agree we are rebuilding and I think we need ot keep blooding hte youth. Egan forget him he is leaving at the end of this year, headed the same road as Cole. Just watching his efforts in the seconds. Yes we will probably mae the finals but who wants to just make the finals. We are not up with...

me too. But i half expected to lose today. With our game depending on intense tackling we just cant do it week in week out. WE need a ruckman and i truly beleive we need to plan for 2010 by blooding all the talent in the seconds. I exepect we will lose by 8 goals next week. Not sure if we have...

richard is now a very big man just lacked the discipline for afl.

no loss to collingwood, just a waist of talent

I love the pies and do not want to do anything that impacts a man that is really making our year of some value. Didak has truly being a terrifc player this year we dont need reminders of the episode last year. Best wishes, truly we all need some light relfief but not at didaks expense, i live in...

This must be a joke. Have you been to the games lately and seen our midfield delivery. I would hate to be a forward at Collingwood. Travis is busiting his gu and getting high bombs when he is surrounded by three opposition players. Our problem is either an ineffective midfield or incompotent...

this is rubbish and does not fit within the collingwood ethos, it is really making me wonder who is monitoring new threads

no. There is something wrong at collingwood. We have the most money the best facilties, spend most on recruitng and still in 18 years no flag. Mick is prbably past it. Great man great attitude, but we need to change the culture again. We have been outcoached by Carlton and Hawks in recent...

Re: collingwood legends Frank Tuck no relation to Michael, grew up in cobram and now lives in corowa. i hear that the 50th anniversary of the 58 priemership will be celebrated at our game against footscary, the 58 team will be there.

Who is your favourite collingwood legend? Mine is Frank Tuck, many say Frank was the unluckiest collingwood player and captain. Missing two winning grand finals and playing in two losing ones. He was just marvellous and I think he needs more recognition as one of the great captains of...

disagree, we need speed agianst the hawks, burns if fit must come in, but rocca would have to replace a tall, which tall would we leave out? wood and play rocca in the ruck? If rocca has a muscle injury he will need more than one week.

absolute rubbish knocking the team so early in the year. We are a terrific team, we have a very young list htat will have ups and downs. I am in for the long haul. I am confident about anzac day, but it is just another step. My focus is on 2011.

not sure why johnson has to go, I thought he played with passion. Holland was injured in first half so just needs to recover and get fit. I would like to see Reid get a few weeks in the forward line and give Wellingham a go. As I see it rgiht now we have gone backwards on last year and need to...

I think there are a few issues from yesterday. I was surspised we couldn't develop a stratgey to support harry down back. The ball bounced carltons way all day Rocca had a downer again when collingwood needed him Malthouse coaches collingwood to peak in finals so yesterday is a long way...

well good to see we still talk a lot of rubbish on this site, don't you love the trivia, lets focus on Didaks great start to season 08

Give the kid a chance do you have 18YO in your house they do make mistakes. Let he who has sinned cast first stone. Lets hope this is a turning point for hte young lad. He has my blessing for his future but no more silly mistakes

i agree, gary pert needs to deliver customer service standards, thats the ceo responsibilty not the the president
